The connection between breathwork and cold plunging
Manage stress & optimize resilience
Practicing hormesis (exposure to mild, controlled stressors) builds adaptability, resilience, and overall wellbeing. Pairing cold plunging with breathwork helps stimulate the body's adaptive responses, leading to increased full body health.
Controlled respiration
When entering a cold plunge, your body's initial reaction might be to breathe rapidly. Relax your breath to a slower, rhythmic flow through the nose. Extended exhales enhance relaxation. Humming can increase nitric oxide in the body, further relaxing the nervous system.
Remote control of your nervous system
Conscious, strategic breathing allows you to manage your stress response in high-stress environments like a cold plunge, cultivating resilience and calm. The lessons learned from a cold plunge will stick with you across many stressful situations.
